[preview]Einer der Stars erster Stunde in der Community der iPhone-Entwickler war Joe Hewitt, der mit seiner offiziellen Facebook-Applikation wohl eine der meist genutzten Anwendungen für das iPhone entwickelt hat. Nun schmeißt er entnervt die Brocken hin: Der Ingenieur hat die Nase von der 'Apple-Tyrannei' gestrichen voll und gibt offen bekannt, dass einzig die Apple-Politik an seinem Rückzug schuld hat. Hewitt ist ebenfalls für seine Mitarbeit beim Mozilla Firefox sowie dem berühmten Plugin Firebug bekannt und will nun eigenen Angaben zufolge zurück zur Webentwicklung.

„My decision to stop iPhone development has had everything to do with Apple’s policies. I respect their right to manage their platform however they want, however I am philosophically opposed to the existence of their review process. I am very concerned that they are setting a horrible precedent for other software platforms, and soon gatekeepers will start infesting the lives of every software developer.
The web is still unrestricted and free, and so I am returning to my roots as a web developer. In the long term, I would like to be able to say that I helped to make the web the best mobile platform available, rather than being part of the transition to a world where every developer must go through a middleman to get their software in the hands of users.‟
